Hamas Cell Planned Terror Attacks at Shul, Train Station in Israel

Three members of a Hamas cell were indicted in Haifa District Court on Monday for planning terrorist attacks within Israel and in the West Bank, the Israel Security Agency announced.

The cell members, including an Arab Israeli and two Palestinians, planned shooting attacks, bombings and kidnappings in the Chevron area.

They also gathered intelligence for attacks within Israel at the Afula bus station, a military base, the Binyamina train station, and a shul in Zichron Ya’akov. The cell members were familiar with the locations from working in Israeli illegally.
